Sets the global color palettes used across the project for different column types. You can configure separate palettes for categorical columns, sequential single-hue (numeric with one direction), sequential multi-hue (numeric with gradient), and diverging (numeric with a center point). If not configured, Graphext uses its default palettes. This is a UI configuration step that affects how the project is displayed in Graphext. It applies to the dataset referenced in its inputs. If your recipe produces multiple datasets (e.g. a filtered dataset that is then passed to create_project alongside the original), you need to add separate configure steps for each dataset you want to configure.

Usage

The following example shows how the step can be used in a recipe.

Examples

Use Osiris, Greens, Magma & Red-Yellow-Green palettes.
configure_color_palette({
    "categorical": "Osiris",
    "sequentialSingleHue": "Greens",
    "sequentialMultiHue": "Magma",
    "diverging": "Red-Yellow-Green"
})

Inputs & Outputs

The following are the inputs expected by the step and the outputs it produces. These are generally columns (ds.first_name), datasets (ds or ds[["first_name", "last_name"]]) or models (referenced by name e.g. "churn-clf").

Configuration

The following parameters can be used to configure the behaviour of the step by including them in a json object as the last “input” to the step, i.e. step(..., {"param": "value", ...}) -> (output).
